Eira, Swami Ji and Mervi
Sometimes I do not really understand and feel strange about some people who are dishonest. There are people who do not wish anything good for me. Maybe they are jealous or they feel a competition which is not there, as I do not participate in any competition. Maybe... Read More

One of my friends told me about an incident which reflects the common attitude of modern society. One day he met his neighbour who did not look happy on that day. He asked if everything was fine and she said with a very cold voice: “My mother died yesterday.&... Read More

My friend also asked a question about different qualities of love. He said that he loves some people, likes others and also dislikes some. I do not see this as different qualities of love. I see it as different levels of liking, of taste. For me love is God and I c... Read More

Swami Ji
My friend also talked about the decision to love someone and said that if you decide to love it might not be real love. I would like to say that you have to make the decision to love everybody. You have to have the decision to have love in yourself. This is the dec... Read More

Words of Wisdom

  • Silence

    Silence is very necessary. It is a jewel of life. Most of our energy is consumed by talking. Be silent and save it.

    Source
  • Followers

    I don’t like the word ‘follower’ or ‘disciple’. Guru simply means teacher, so if you have the need for a teacher, a guru, why don’t you call yourself student? Rather than being a follower who follows blindly like a sheep, you should be a student, eager to learn more, enthusiastic for getting more knowledge and experience.

    Source
  • Relationship

    Acceptance and respect are needed for keeping a relationship alive. Your perception of your partner must be clean of doubts. Nothing is bad or good, keep in mind that it is only your perception.

    Source
  • Gurus

    I will be happy to feel myself always as being a good student. But I see here many times that this desire of being a master comes. People want to be in charge. They want to be a master and it actually is their unfulfilled wish that shows in this way.

    Source
  • Death

    Who are you to decide upon life or death? Who are you to decide whether a person should live or die? Who are you to torture another human being?

    Source
  • Religion

    Isn’t it strange that it is offending if a normal person shows his genitals in public while religious men get worldwide fame for it?

    Source
  • Forgiveness

    Forgive and leave your anger behind. Remember that this is not an act of grace towards the other person but something that you are doing for yourself, too! Be in love, that makes it easier!

    Source
  • Negativity

    In the West, many people live in negative thinking and live in fear with a negative attitude. They are hopeless, suspicious, doubtful and always see the dark side of things. Most of all, they don't enjoy life. Come out of this negativity and see how beautiful life is!

    Source
  • Scriptures

    Religions explain that women should be obedient, submissive and not displaying or enhancing their beauty, that people of another belief are to be killed, how non-believers would be tortured and how they would suffer before their death and in the afterlife or next life.

    Source
  • Love

    Love is not a spark, it is the light that shows you the way. A spark is a spark, only for a moment and when it is gone you are in darkness. Love is the light.

    Source
  • Acceptance

    Accept your feelings, accept yourself. Only if you accept yourself you can respect yourself. Be proud of who you are and what you have inside! Each of these steps is important because only if you respect yourself you can love yourself. And only with this love to yourself you can give love to others and receive love from others. Then you are open for this universal love. Accept yourself, respect yourself and love yourself!

    Source
  • Devotion

    It is the path of devotion and love when you can say to your God ‘Wherever I am, whoever I am, I am yours.’ Then you have surrendered yourself and offered yourself to God. For this you need closeness.

    Source
  • Cheating

    If you did a mistake, the first part of the solution is already that you realize it and then accept it. Don't try to find an excuse but turn around and walk the other way. Simply, honestly accept that you made a mistake and for the future commit to live an honest life which doesn’t cause pain for others and later for yourself.

  • Body

    Yoga and Meditation help you lose Weight

    Source
  • Sex

    The average Indian person will tell you that it is wrong to have sex before marriage. They think sex is something dirty, even if they are married. Before being married however it is thought to be a sin!

    Source
  • Change

    Don't like your job? - Change it or start liking it!

    Source
  • Religion

    Religion welcomes people with an option to only be partly religious. Take as much of it as you want: 20%, 40% or 60%. Hardly anybody will go with 100% but religion does not care, it wants to have you in any way. It is like sugar-coated poison, a drug that promises you a lot and you, carefully, take a bit and don’t notice how you are drawn into it even more.

    Source
  • Perception

    Not any belief is good or bad, no person is good or bad and no place is good or bad. It is only your perception.

    Source
  • Gurus

    Some people have the ego to think of themselves as God and want to have their picture, their shoes, a picture of their feet or even statues of themselves on altars.

    Source
  • Friend

    Take a step to make relations closer: call the other one your Friend!
